You can do way more with whey protein than just down it after your workout, that’s why we’ve developed Essential Whey Protein. From tasty desserts to quick snacks and smoothies, this cost-effective formulation will inspire and switch up your shake game.
Packed with over 18g of protein per serving, this is the everyday protein you need from a quality source. Plus, it includes all of the essential amino acids, including at least 5.8g of BCAAs — these naturally occur in protein which helps to build and repair new muscle.1
And, with at least 0.7g of carbs, and at least 132 calories per serving, our low in sugar Essential Whey Protein is perfect for everyone, whatever your fitness goals.
How does this compare to Impact Whey Protein?
Firstly, the price. Our Essential Whey Protein is a cost-effective whey protein.
So, what's the catch? Well, it’s less refined than our Impact Whey Protein, meaning it’s slightly higher in carbs, fat, and calories, but still delivers the high protein you need.
If you’re looking to boost your protein intake, that won’t break the bank, our Essential Whey Protein is the perfect choice.

Makes a mess!
Thought I'd try this over the regular Impact Protein due to rising costs. Less protein per 100g but that's not essential to me as it goes in my breakfast. Taste wise, Vanilla was surprisingly nice, mixed into a fruit smoothy. The downsides - it's very fine, almost like flour or icing sugar in texture meaning it's almost impossible not to make a mess with it. It also gave me the guffs, unlike the regular Impact protein. For those reasons, I'd probably go back to the standard Impact protein. Goes Well With:Fruit smoothy.

Protein shake
Bought this for my lad who said it didn’t taste very good, so I tried it and it’s horrible. The sad thing is we normally have chocolate which is really nice and we only ordered strawberry for a change! Won’t be getting that again.🙁

Disappointing protein
The worst tasting protein I have yet to buy from My Protein. Not only did it taste bad, but it mixed very poorly and left me feeling slightly queasy and bloated for at least an hour after.

Does what it says
The protein mixes relatively well but you still get the occasional lump. As a flavour, for me this vanilla is a little bit sweeter than I would choose. But that could be me just being over picky. Although you get thr occasional lump the actual consistency of the mix is good, it doesn't feel to think and it is easy to swallow. Overall this is one of the better protein shake powders I have purchased.

Whey
The unflavored whey protein is really bad. The smell is off, the thickness and stickiness of the powder is too much and it doesn’t mix well in porridge. The taste is poor when mixed into the porridge too. Wish I could return it and get a different flavour. Goes Well With:Nothing

Eden
Great protein power, tastes very good for protein- tastes very creamy and smooth and mixes well with water or milk. Goes Well With:It’s great made into pancakes or drink as a typical shake.

Not the best
The taste was probably the worst factor. However it did not seem effective either, not really helping my bulk

Does not Mix
Sits like a fine dust on top of whatever you try to mix it with, like BCAA powder.
